PantherGamecock2 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 Why would he be #92 if they were not leaning towards him being an DE. His college number 40 is available, yet he did not get it. Sounds like the coaching staff might want to put him on the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatMan72 4,721 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 He's just the right size for a Meeks DE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PantherGamecock2 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 Except linebackers can have numbers 90-99... Yea, but he could have gotten #40 if he was going to be a pure linebacker..think this shows that the staff is at least considering putting him on the line Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brandon_87 605 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 there was already a article on panthers.com saying he would be used as a edge rusher from time to time as a DE, but he will be a OLB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mj4life 29 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 he will be hybid lb/de sort of like orakpo who lines up at slb and de at times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Urrymonster 39 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 Pretty sure I read a quote of Fox saying they were initially having him at SLB. With Hardy, Brown, Johnson, Brayton & Taylor I have a hard time believing he will migrate to the defensive line, unless we pick up an extra linebacker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CRA 13,936 Report post Posted April 27, 2010 He's just the right size for a Meeks DE. that is by far the most overused phrase around.... pretty sure Meeks just wants guys that can play at a high level. Pretty sure talent is more important to Meeks than size. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
